MARPLES, JUL 17 2020 This is an excerpt from Understanding Ukraine and Belarus: A Memoir by David R. Marples. Download your free copy on E-International Relations. The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS) commemorated its 40th anniversary in 2016. A large sign was placed outside Pembina Hall, on the main University of Alberta campus where it was housed on the fourth floor that said simply: “CIUS – 40 Years of Excellence.” There were a number of events over the year but the highlight was a conference on October 14 and 15 entitled: “Ukrainian Studies in Canada: Texts and Contexts.” The day before the conference, Taras Kuzio, whom Kravchenko had appointed a Research Associate on a three-year contract, offered a talk on “Is Donbas part of Ukraine?” Kuzio was unhappy because his contract had not been renewed, partly as a result of his YouTube broadcasts, several of which targeted CIUS among his usual victims of scholars who in his view were hostile to Ukraine, “Putinophiles,” or fellow travellers. The Conference had a formidable array of scholars working on Ukraine throughout their scholarly careers. It included from Canada: Volodymyr Kravchenko, Paul Robert Magocsi, Serhii Yekelchyk, Bohdan Kordan, Manoly Lupul, Myroslav Shkandrij, Frank Sysyn, Zenon Kohut, Alla Nedashkivska, Heather Coleman, Natalia Khanenko-Friesen, Lubomyr Luciuk, and myself.

URL : http://journals.openedition.org/eccs/1118 ; DOI : 10.4000/eccs.1118 AFEC From Britishness to Multiculturalism: Official Canadian Identity in the 1960s Shannon CONWAY University of Ottawa The 1960s was a tumultuous period that resulted in the reshaping of official Canadian identity from a predominately British-based identity to one that reflected Canada’s diversity. The change in constructions of official Canadian identity was due to pressures from an ongoing dialogue in Canadian society that reflected the larger geo-political shifts taking place during the period. This dialogue helped shape the political discussion, from one focused on maintaining an out-dated national identity to one that was more representative of how many Canadians understood Canada to be. This change in political opinion accordingly transformed the official identity of the nation-state of Canada. Les années 1960 ont été une période tumultueuse qui a fait passer l'identité officielle canadienne d'une identité essentiellement britannique à une identité reflétant la diversité du Canada.

    BEYOND MOTHERHOOD: UKRAINIAN FEMALE LABOR MIGRATION TO ITALY By Olena Fedyuk Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Ayúe Ça÷lar Professor Prem Kumar Rajaram CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2011 Statement I hereby state that the thesis contains no materials accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Budapest, May 31, 2011 CEU eTD Collection 2 Abstract Conceptualizing contemporary labor migration from Ukraine as a form of transnational, cross- generational familial project, this dissertation looks into the shifting practices of Ukrainian women’s migration to Italy and asks what kinds of ruptures, coping mechanisms and continuities were triggered and emerged in response to this transnational, feminized migration. Drawing on the fieldwork conducted among Ukrainian care- and domestic workers in Bologna and Naples, my research has indicated the centrality of motherhood in such familial migration projects led by women. To bring out dynamic role of motherhood in imagining, strategizing and carrying migration I introduce an analytical distinction between motherhood as a trope and motherhood as a situational practice. Such distinction between the two allows me to address the very mechanism of justifying, making sense of and dealing with the unequally distributed responsibilities within migrants transnational social fields, and to capture the emotion work and negotiations that shape these fields and the power struggles within them.

  • Review of Orest Subtelny with Orest Dzulynsky Et Al. Plast: Ukrainian Scouting, a Unique Story, EWJUS, Vol. 5, No. 2, 2018
    Book Reviews 223 Orest Subtelny with Orest Dzulynsky et al. Plast: Ukrainian Scouting, a Unique Story. Plast Publishing, 2016. xx, 442 pp. Illustrations. Maps. Tables. Glossary of Plast Terms. Sources and Further Reading. Index. $35.00, cloth. he last major project undertaken by distinguished York University T historian Orest Subtelny prior to his death was a comprehensive history of Plast, the Ukrainian scouting association that was formally initiated in Western Ukraine in 1912. In the book under review, co-authors (Orest Dzulynsky, Tanya Dzulynsky, and Oksana Zakydalsky), a coordinating committee, contributors, and reviewers worked with Subtelny. Subtelny begins by examining the genesis of the Plast organization in the western Ukrainian lands of Eastern Galicia, which were within the confines of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. There, the organization adapted the tenets of Lord Robert Baden-Powell’s scouting movement within a Ukrainian milieu. The term for the organization itself comes from the Kuban Cossacks, who called their military scouts “plastuny” (8). Subtelny positions the origins of Plast within the context of existing student societies and the popular Sokil and Sich physical-education movements, and he outlines its spread to Bukovyna, Volhynia, Transcarpathia, and, to a limited extent, central and eastern Ukraine. He describes the organization’s tribulations through two world wars—how it suffered under changing and hostile occupational regimes before migrating to diasporas worldwide. The golden age of the Plast organization occurred during the 1920s, at a time when western Ukrainian territories were incorporated into the interwar Polish state. During this period, the organization developed rapidly in both a quantitative sense and a qualitative sense.
